Grief Support Services offers a rewarding opportunity for people to provide compassionate support for grieving children, teens, and adults. Hospice volunteers are an integral part of the team.
Volunteers are needed to co-facilitate peer support groups for all ages. For example, the SoundCareKids program provides support for children 3-18 years old and their parents or other caregivers who are grieving the death of a loved one. Kids, teens, and parents meet in small peer groups for discussion and age-appropriate activities designed to explore different aspects of grief. Training, ongoing support and supervision is provided by staff.
Currently we are recruiting for interested volunteers for this role but training and on-boarding will not be available until 2018 to start volunteering.
